Paneth cell-like change of the prostate gland. H&E stain. (WC/Nephron)

Paneth cell-like change of the prostate gland, abbreviated PCLC, is an uncommon histologic change in the prostate gland that may be seen in the context of benign or malignant glands.[1][2]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Prostatic glands with a Paneth gland-like appearance:
    • Eosinophilic cytoplastic granules.
